“With the collaboration of our colleagues at Abortion Free New Mexico, these phone calls show that someone can easily make an appointment to have an abortion late in pregnancy. This particular call resulted in an appointment for an abortion at over 26 weeks, and the clinic personnel treated it in a routine way.

“Even people who identify as pro-choice reject abortion at these late stages of pregnancy. As a Knights of Columbus/Marist poll last year revealed, almost six in ten Americans support the protection of babies in the womb after 20 weeks of pregnancy. This includes 56 percent of people who identify themselves as ‘pro-choice,’ and 49 percent of those who identify as Democrats.”

Tara Shaver of Abortion Free New Mexico added, “In our nation’s capital, late term abortions are being performed on viable babies through 26 weeks of pregnancy. Washington Surgi-Clinic is performing these abortions on healthy women carrying healthy babies with no questions asked. Now is the time for Congress to act swiftly to end this scourge of late term abortion.”

This and the previous eleven undercover calls, which show abortion appointments being made even at 32 weeks of pregnancy, can be heard atwww.PriestsForLife.org/LateTermAbortion. Citizens are urged to take action in two ways, first by spreading the links to these phone calls on social media, and second by contacting their US Senators and urging them to vote for the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, S. 1922, which would protect children in the womb who can feel pain, hence preventing the abortions of those who are at 20 weeks of development or more. Guidance on these action steps, and the opportunity to sign up for action alerts, is at www.StopAbortionNow.org.

Priests for Life and Abortion Free NM Release 10th and 11th Undercover Calls

Fr. Pavone: Time for the Myths to Stop About Late Term Abortion

Report by Priests for Life, the nation’s largest Catholic pro-life organization dedicated to ending abortion and euthanasia.

In the 10th and 11th of the ongoing series of undercover phone calls that Priests for Life has commissioned to abortion clinics across America, the evidence continues to pile up that healthy babies of healthy mothers are being aborted legally in the later stages of pregnancy.

Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, stated, “This educational project, carried out in partnership with Abortion Free New Mexico, is meant to break through the ignorance and denial that is so prevalent among our fellow citizens. When you tell people that a mother can legally abort her baby at, for instance, 24 weeks of pregnancy – as the calls released today demonstrate – they will look at you in disbelief. Some will say we are making it up. Others will say it happens only if the mother is going to die or the baby is deformed. But it’s time for those myths to stop.”

Tara Shaver of Abortion Free New Mexico explained, “The Cedar River Clinic and All Women’s Care in Washington state are performing abortions well after babies have been known to survive outside of the womb. These abortions are being done electively up to 26 weeks of pregnancy on healthy moms carrying healthy babies; fully funded at taxpayer’s expense. Late term post viability abortions are not as rare as one may think, they are occurring all across America.”

Fr. Pavone stated, “People have a right to their own opinions, but they don’t have a right to their own facts. If we’re going to debate abortion in this country, rather than pretending to debate abortion, then we’re going to start with acknowledging that healthy babies of healthy mothers are being killed even at 24 weeks and beyond. On our other calls you can hear such appointments being set up for 26, 30 and 32 weeks into pregnancy.

“We urge people to take the links to these calls and spread them everywhere they can, on websites, via email, and on social media. Bring this information also to your pastors and urge them to inform their congregations,” Fr. Pavone added.

“Most Americans, including those who call themselves pro-choice, oppose late-term abortion. And now, we have an opportunity to protect babies in the womb from 20 weeks forward. We urge citizens to contact their US Senators to pass the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (S. 1922), which has already been passed by the House and which President Trump has promised to sign. Go to www.StopAbortionNow.org for more details.”

In the ninth of its undercover phone calls to legal abortion clinics in America, Priests for Life today released the audio of a call to the office of abortionist Leroy Carhart in Bethesda, MD, showing more evidence that late term abortions are performed on healthy babies of healthy mothers.

“Once again, our undercover phone calls reveal yet another abortion clinic who was willing to schedule an abortion for a healthy mother carrying a healthy baby in the later stages of pregnancy, in this case, at 26 weeks,” said Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director.

Here is the relevant part of the phone call to the abortion business of abortionist Leroy Carhart in Bethesda, MD:

Clinic: “Do you have any major medical problems at all?” Caller: “No”

Clinic: “Is there anything wrong with you or your pregnancy?” Caller: “No”

Clinic: “At 26 weeks it’s $7000… We can see you up until 28 weeks; if there’s no medical reason after 28 weeks it’s a case by case basis.”

Tara Shaver of Abortion Free New Mexico stated, “This latest undercover call reveals that Abortionist Leroy Carhart in Bethesda, MD is performing late term abortions on healthy women carrying healthy babies through 28 weeks of pregnancy. He is not, however, inclined to offer in office consultations for his patients who have questions before the 3-4 day abortion procedure. The abortion industry is not concerned with giving women information and choices; these profiteers are merely killers for hire who don’t want to answer any questions, they just want to get paid.”

The audio of this call can be heard at www.priestsforlife.org/LateTermAbortion. In previous taped calls, also available on that page, abortion appointments were made at two other legal abortion clinics for healthy moms carrying healthy babies at 25, 30 and 32 weeks.

At the present time, there is a legislative opportunity to end late term abortion, a goal supported by most Americans, including those who identify themselves as “pro-choice.”

“In the light of these facts, we are urging all US Senators to vote for the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (S. 1622), to protect these children starting at 20 weeks of their development,” Fr. Pavone concluded.
